What is RYLA?

Who is eligible?
Any High School Sophomore or Junior prior to the summer conference may apply. Generally, the applicants who are selected have excelled in one or more areas of high school involvement and have proven leadership experience or potential.

Dates:
        RYLA 1: Sunday, JUNE 18 through Friday, JUNE 23, 2017.
        RYLA 2: Sunday, JUNE 25 through Friday, JUNE 30, 2017.

Application Deadline:
The deadline is usually April 30 or SOONER, but is determined by each Rotary Club.
Check with your local Rotary Club and complete your application early!


The objectives of RYLA are
  • To encourage and assist youth leaders and potential leaders in methods of responsible and effective leadership by providing them with a training experience.
  • To encourage continued and stronger leadership of youth by youth
  • To publicly recognize the outstanding qualities of many young people who are rendering service to their schools and communities as leaders
The entire focus of RYLA is to provide foundational leadership skills for teenagers. It has been said that leadership cannot be taught, but it must be learned. At RYLA there are opportunities to learn leadership skills through experiential activities, incredible speakers, small group discussions, large group presentations, and in building life-long friendships.

Part of the magic of RYLA is not having any expectations going into it, which is why we are rather close-mouthed about exactly what we do. RYLA keeps the students busy all day every day, but the end result is more than worth the initial scariness of the unknown.
